Subject: [PATCH v5 6/6] mtd: rawnand: micron: detect forced on-die ECC

Some Micron NAND chips have on-die ECC forceably enabled. The detect
these based on chip ID as there seems to be no other way of
distinguishing these chips from those that have optional support for
on-die ECC.

When a chip with mandatory on-die ECC is detected change the current ECC
mode to on-die.

Notes:
    Changes in v4:
    - New
    Changes in v5:
    - fail if on-die ECC is mandatory and the current ecc.mode is not
      NAND_ECC_ON_DIE.
